169 Flow (Deut 16)

Something I learned from my earlier dietary experiment was,
That when I don't want to do something, I should.
Today I've sort of dallied around.
Distracted by facebook and some Ninja Parachute game on my iPod.
Tea was fantastic and TV held my interest longer than normal.
In the past two months, that would have been enough to call off the blog.
Such a far cry from when I started.
So I gave myself a dead arm and dragged myself back to the keyboard.
I feel ok now.
It's what I should be doing and the words are flowing.
Unfortunately, thanks to a lovely thai red curry chicken dish for lunch, that is not all.
:D

Deuteronomy 16
Solemnity in rememberance.
Feasting in anticipation.
Unity as a nation.
Separation from all others.
Hope for the future.
Justice for all.
Inheritance to follow.
And you shall have no other gods before God.

And I don't think I can add to that.
Really.
The best lessons are often the simplest.
Not that I'm any sort of teacher.

Which reminds me.
I just got "tagged" on facebook in my Grade 7 class photo.
The memories that came from that one photo.
Faces became names.
The banter in the comments gave further flashbacks.
The only real event I can remember from that year in school though, was on an Outward Bound camping trip.
Our teacher slashed an inflatible raft open with her knife when she thought a student was trapped underneath it after a capsize.
He wasn't.
Oh and I got really badly homesick after three days.
I cried.
